| Q: I noticed that in Isabella County the edge (fog) lines are painted at the same time as the center line on paved roads but other counties do not do this. Why is there a differnece?
A: It is totally up to the road authority which has jurisdiction over the roads. In Isabella County we can paint centerline and edge (fog) lines for about $800.00 per mile and that will be repeated every 3 years. Safety is the major factor in Isabella county. When dense fog blankets low-lying areas of the county, the painted edge (fog) lines become our best aid in maneuvering safely (at reduced speeds). |
